Tin* Hill N > • Cigar Grievance. The famous bald headed humorist is paying oue of the penalties of popularity by having a cigar named after him. As the cigar seems to be a combination of abomination and villainy, Bill desires to repudiate the paternity that may be ascribed to him, and the Courant-Ameh- ICAN is quite willing to help him out with out any charge for advertising space. The following extracts will suffice to convey the warning: It may seem like a personal matter, but 1 desire at this time to discuss a question which not only interests me, but the American people almost equally as much. f refer to a cigar which has recently been issued in the United States, entitled the Bill Nye cigar, apparently made under my own personal supervision and at my behest. To those who may have purchased these weeds, believing that I made them with my own fair hands, I desire tostate that they have been cruelly deceived. From all over the Union word is com ing, ever and anon,, in relation to these cigars. Judging by the tone of these letters I conclude that these cigars are of inferior quality. I therefore desire to caution the public against using them to excess, and also to state that the cigars are not made by me, but at a distance from my Slosh and Slippery elm hurst. For this reason it frequently happens that bits of wire, rubber, Madura overalls and other foreign substances are intro duced in their manufacture. 1 know that tobacco “is a filthy weed, and does much harm in the world, but that is no reason why a cigar manufact urer should seek to carry on his business without using it. We can hardly hope to abolish tobacco by making cigars from an inferior grade of flannel. I have steadily opposed all classes of frauds and imitations all my life. Even when my eyes were first opened to the wonderful truth that nobody had ever known a goat to die a natural death, and that mutton continued to be plenty even after sheep disappeared, 1 went to my butcher and told him that the square, open way was the best way, and 1 fell that way yet. To show the reader that I have lost caste among my friends because my name is attached to a cigar that is in bad odor, I give below a few letters from those who once respected me. Eufaula, Ala. Mil Xve, New York —Dear Sir: I have been a reader of your pieces in the papers for many years, and have certainly been greatly benefitted by them, but you hurt youi self when you went to making cigars. I bought a box of the Bill Nye cigars a week ago. and that evening smoked one iu mv study. I lost the use of the study for two or three days, and my wife has not come back yet. What do you put in your cigars aside from the rag-carpeting and roman-can dles? Did you invent the cigar or do you just manufacture it for the inventor? Our physician says he thinks you got the cigar out of your own head, but it does not seem possible that your head is in that condition. If so I hope that you will try to do something for it before it is too late. So no more at present. From your true friend, Earl H. Adams. This letter pained me too much, for it was written in such a gentle spirit by one who evidently had my best interests at heart. 1 began to be alarmed, but thought that perhaps he had struck a bad cigar which had crept into the box without my knowledge while the rest are all right. Just then I received the following: Stone Lake, lowa. Bn.lXve, Esq—Dear Sir: Your cigars have just reached Western lowa. We have had nothing like it since the close of the war. I was just lighting one of them yesterday when its contents fell out on the floor, leaving the wrapper in my hand. After you have finished your cigars you should put a stopper in the end to keep the debris from spilling out. Do you get your cigar linings from abroad? Wehave a curled-hair in at trass factory here that you could make a deal with after you run short ot scrap-iron and retired cedar-block pavement. If you could afford to boil down a few pounds of tobacco and pour the broth over your cigars, it would help to deaden the effects of foreign substances and add a flavor to the Manilla wrapper you now use. Generally Ido not go out of my way to give advice, but in this instance I feel that I ought to tell you that the best thing for you to do with these cigars is to use them for home consumption. I would like to witness a few rounds be tween one of these weeds and a long standing case of home consumption. Possibly you have been wronged, how ever. Last year I saw a horse that had been named after you, and he did not resemble you in anyway. He was a heavy-set horse and had considerable ■mse. >u are not making these cigars ’ll apologize for writing you 'estly, there are a good ds who would not would come °re not k ell, in.v dver it is reaching a tremendous sale. It is a flagrant wrong to the people of the United States, however, and 1 hereby proclaim that I will not defray the ex penses or assist at the obsequies of those who smoke these cigars.
